Maxim Integrated MAX907CSA+T Dual/Quad Low-Power, Single-Supply TTL Comparators

The MAX907CSA+T is a high-performance dual comparator from Maxim Integrated, designed to offer precision voltage comparison with low power consumption and a single power supply operation. This device is ideal for a wide range of applications including battery-powered devices, threshold detectors, level translators, and systems that require multiple voltage comparisons with minimal power usage.

Encased in a compact 8-pin SOIC package, the MAX907CSA+T operates on a single supply voltage ranging from +4.5V to +5.5V, making it versatile for various electronic circuits. The low-power design ensures that the device consumes minimal energy, with a typical supply current of just 150µA per comparator at +5V, which is particularly advantageous for portable and battery-operated equipment.

One of the key features of the MAX907CSA+T is its TTL logic-compatible outputs, which allow for direct interfacing with a multitude of digital circuits. This compatibility simplifies the design process by eliminating the need for additional level-shifting components. The device offers a fast response time with a propagation delay typically under 200ns, providing quick and accurate comparisons for time-sensitive applications.

The MAX907CSA+T is engineered to handle a wide input voltage range, which includes ground, thus enabling the comparison of low-level signals without the need for dual supplies. This single-supply operation combined with a common-mode input voltage range that extends from the negative supply rail to within 1.5V of the positive supply rail, provides a high degree of flexibility in various design scenarios.

Additionally, the MAX907CSA+T features an internal hysteresis which enhances noise immunity and prevents oscillation, ensuring stable operation even in the presence of noisy signals. With its robust design, the MAX907CSA+T is characterized for operation over the commercial temperature range of 0°C to +70°C, making it suitable for a diverse array of environments.

In summary, the Maxim Integrated MAX907CSA+T is a reliable and efficient solution for systems requiring dual or multiple voltage comparisons. Its low power consumption, single-supply operation, and fast response time make it an excellent choice for designers looking to create compact, energy-efficient, and high-speed electronic products.
